I have 2-3 software products all are freeware. I want to earn some money by embedding some ads in the software itself. Is there a option in adsense so that It can used in Software products. Or is there any other service for making money from freeware software.
You cannot embed adsense ads in the software. However, you can embed your own side ad that contains adsense ads. So create your own site and embed ads for your own site.
you cant embed adsense ads directly in the software, I think this is a great solution for you; create a minisite and embed your site URL in the software. Fill contents with the full description's software, troubleshoot, (maybe a forum), update version release and 'how-to-use' of the software and put adsense in the site... so the users of your software will come to your site to learn more and click some ads...
embed ads in the softwares cause there are duplicate in url, and may be they think, there are invalid clicks
i have some freewares too. but i did not embed the ads in the software its against the TOS,. but i did include a button in the software that when it will be clicked. it will launch my website.. you can find a sample here so that you will have and idea..
If adsense ans other ads are not possible in Freeware Software. Can someone suggest is there any way I can earn something from my Freeware software.
Maybe you could target the freeware users by having a site with adsense that contains "Advanced tips and user examples" and link from the software with a text like that. What do you think?
yes, there is a solution There is a network pays for all traffic, pays e-gold .5$ cpm I think it`s good for you link: popgold.co.cc
